EnamelEnamel has involved as an epithelial derivedprotective covering for teeth;
The cells that are responsible for formation ofenamel, the ameloblasts, are lost as the tootherupt, and hence enamel cannot renew itself;

Compensation
To compensate for this inherent limitation,enamel has acquired a complex structuralorganization and a high degree ofmineralization.These characteristics reflect the unusuallife cycle of the enamel-forming cells, theameloblasts.

The stages of the amelogenesis
Amelogenesis, or enamel formation, istwo-step process.The first step produces a partial
mineralized (30%) enamel.The second step (when the full width ofthis enamel has been deposited) involves
significant influx of additional mineralcoincident with the removal of organicmaterial and water to attain greater than96% mineral content.

Ameloblasts
Ameloblasts secrete matrix proteins andare responsible for creating extracellularenvironment favorable to mineraldeposition;
Ameloblasts exhibits a unique life cyclecharacterized by progressive phenotypicchanges that reflect its primary activity atvarious times of enamel formation.

The enamel organcells during
amelogenesis
Amelogenesis is divided intothe secretory stage and thematuration stage, beingseparated by a short period ofmorphological and functionaltransitions of ameloblasts(transitional stage).During the long-lasting procesof enamel maturation,ameloblasts cyclically changestructure and functionbetween ruffle-endedameloblasts (RA) and smooth-ended ameloblasts (SA).Here the enamel organ alsocomprises the papillary layer(PL) being deeply invaginatedby a capillary network.

Ameloblasts arecells whichsecrete the enamel proteins enamelin and amelogenin which will later mineralize toform enamel on teeth, thehardest substance in thehuman body.[1] Eachameloblast is approximately 4
micrometers in diameter, 40micrometers in length and hasa hexagonal cross section.The secretory end of theameloblast ends in a six-sidedpyramid-like projection knowas the Tomes' process

Phases of the amelogenesis:
Amelogenesis has been described in asmany as six phases but generally issubdivided into three main functionalstages:Presecretory stage;Secretory stage;aturation stage.
8/12/2019 03 Amelogenesis - English

Presecretory stageDifferentiating ameloblasts acquire theirphenotyp, change polarity, develop anextensive protein synthetic apparatus, andprepare to secrete the organic matrix ofenamel.

Morphogenetic Phase of thePresecretory Stage
During the bell stage the shape of thecrown is determined.Cells of inner epithelium are separatedfrom dental papilla by a basementmembrane;The cells are cuboidal or low columnar,with large, centrally located nuclei, poorlydeveloped Golgi elements in the proximalportion of the cells (facing the stratumintermedium).

Differentiation Phase of the
Presecretory Stage As the cells of the inner epitheliumdifferentiate into ameloblasts, theyelongate and their nuclei shift proximallytoward the stratum intermedium;The basement membrane is fragmented
by cytoplasmic projections anddisintegrates during mantle predentinformation;

In each cell the Golgi complex and rough
endoplasmic reticulum increases andmigrated distally;
A second junctional complex develops atthe distal extremity of the cell, dividingthe ameloblast into body and a distalextention called Tomesprocess, ag ainstenamel forms;

Secretory stageSecretion of enamelmatrix becomes to two sites:
The first site is on the proximal part of the process,close to the junctional complex, around the periphery ofthe cell;Secretion from this site along with that from ameloblasts,results in the formation of enamel portion that delimit apit in which resides the distal portion of Tomes`process.This is a continuum throught the enamel loyer calledinterrod enamel ;Secretion fromthe second site (along the face of thedistal portion of the Tomes`process) later fills this pit withmatrix that regulates formation of the so-calledrodenamel .

According to this mechanism, due to theactivity of certain enzymes the
concentration of calcium and phosphateions would raise further leadingto precipitation.

Alkaline phosphatase releasesinorganic phosphates from organic phosphate
(hexose phosphates) and thus raise locally thconcentration of phosphate ions in the tissuefluid which reacts with calcium ions in tissuefluid leading to precipitation of insolublecalcium phosphate.This theory is not well accepted.

According to this mechanism, there arecertain substances called seeding or
nucleating having resemblance to apatite.These substances act as mold or templateupon which crystals are laid down, after
which crystallization proceedsautomatically.This process is known asepitaxy.

by Anderson and Ermanno Bonucci;Matrix vesicles (MV) are organelles of cellula

Nanosphere theory ofmineralization of enamel
Enamel biomineralization involves
secretion of the enamel specificamelogenin proteins that through self-assembly into nanosphere structures
provide the framework within which theinitial enamel crystallites are formed.

Ion exchange in enamel is weak and slow;Ions in the crystal may undergo ionic exchange withions in the environment - saliva;One third of the ions in apatite can exchanged by
replacement of defferent ions heteroionicexchange; It is possible for one ion to be replaced by another othe same kind isoionic exchange.

of Helmholtz The DL refers to two parallel layers of chargesurrounding the enamel crystals. The first layer, thesurface charge (either positive or
negative), comprises ionsadsorbed directly onto theobject due to a host of chemical interactions. The second layer is composed of ions attracted to thesurface charge via the coulomb force, electricallyscreening the first layer. This second layer is looselyassociated with the object, because it is made of freeions which move in the fluid under the influence ofelectric attraction and thermal motion rather than beingfirmly anchored. It is thus called thediffuse layer .

2. The second stage is easily reversible theions enter into subsurface layer of absorbed ionsand neutralize their charges;
3. The third stage is difficult to reversed - the
ions are included in the surface of the crystal;
